Are you sure that Buchsbaum was alive when Wood and Levitre came out?
Oopsie - I meant his replacement, Nawrocki. I associate that publication so much wtih JB.

Meredith was also at one point a first round pick in many pre-season mocks and was at a high conference school in the Southeast that Buddy scouted. He may not have been ready for the big time but he defintely has talent.
Meredith was given the exact same grade as Wood by Buchsbaum, and higher than Levitre. He was also the #6 ranked Tackle in his draft class. It's like adding another pick to last years class (Wood, Levitre, Meredith). Not your usual practice squad pickup - the kids got potential. Plus coming in when he did he was thrown into the fire - this offseason he's on the same learning curve as everyone else. Let 'em play and see what he's got.

Flozell retired a few years ago, and is just collecting paychecks now.
-
Seriously? He's shown nothing in non-contact OTA drills?
Yes, truly the worst pick ever. He should have had 3 or 4 sacks on the OTAs by now.
No, but it woulda been nice to see him at least hold off free agent castaway Torbor.

So who is this brilliant coach who is going to properly develop the O line players, set up line protections and teach these young players everything they will need to learn to become top players...oh right, the assistant line coach from KC who is now the Bills line coach.
Yea well, I'm not convinced this years O line will be any better then last years, but that's me.
Dead on. It's the same crew every year, preaching patience and the coaches know more than us. How's that worked out the last 10 years? And Maybin's already been demoted during OTA's
We won't hear from the patience is a virtue crowd in a few years once he's out of the league. They'll have moved on to their new pet. -
5 more than Maybin.
Plus he was drafted 26th, not 11. I don't understand how folks think Flowers was a bigger bust. Maybin is already flaming out, and the only thing that awaits is the passage of time so that we can finally confirm he's a bust. Seriously, he can't hold off Torbor through OTA's? Sheesh. -
The old Falling back on the "they know more than you do" argument comes out. It must be that time of year when fans question the direction, only to be told they aren't in the NFL and know nothing.
Wonder if that sentiment will be echoed in November-December.
It's reserved for the mentally weak. Whoever uses it ought to be ashamed and embarrassed.
-
Would Albany use the money wisely? Doubtful, they would probably give each other raises with it.
My point exactly. Let's just enjoy the Bills.
-
There was never a clamor for pursuing Whitehurst here. That is just a figment of your imagination. Isn't it a little early to assess any player at this point? Players are playing in shorts during OTAs and trainng camp hasn't started yet. You are right that most analysts felt that Seattle paid way too much for the qb acquisition. Seattle believed that they had to add another qb to their roster because there was some concern about Hasselbeck's health and durability.

Most people were like Huh? Who? on the few threads that did pop up.

Yeah, I'm sure if we didn't have the Bills that $3M would be put to good use elsewhere.
-
One sentence in this article about the state budget spending....
$3 million spent to keep the Buffalo Bills in Buffalo, a deal made with the NFL team over a decade ago.
Is this a recurring payment every year?
Isn't that the annual maintenance funding they get every year?

Easley is our Marques Colston this year
-
Where are all the people who were adamant that his injury was career ending????
Cool, only took 3 posts in for someone to turn positive news into calling others out. Rock on TSW!

Brown will sign his RFA tender of $3.619 million, and extension talks may begin down the line. Per ESPN's Adam Schefter, the Saints' compensation hinges on the Donovan McNabb trade. If McNabb makes the Pro Bowl, or the Redskins win nine games or make the playoffs, the Eagles receive a third-round pick and the Saints get a fourth. If none of those happen, the Eagles will get the fourth-round pick and the Saints get the third-rounder.
Ha! Jared Gaither for a 2nd rounder, my ass! Well played Mr. Nix.
-
It will set market value for this offseason.
OMG, this is the most important transaction this decade! Oy, the implications!

Friggin' idiot convention in here.

I don't know, but I am glad someone in this thread is already half drunk at noon

Seeing as he wasn't active for any of the games in 2008 I'm not sure he was wrong.
Why not? Just because he didn't play? He was drafted in 2008, and on the roster, not the practice squad. Then he started in 2009. 2010 makes this his 3rd year in the league. Calling 2009 starts his rookie campaign is inaccurate, though I'm sure the owners would like to violate the CBA and call 2009 his rookie year.

Well if you're looking for a Steak and Cheese or Chicken Finger Sub
Yes please!
I can make a cold cut sub at home. -
After listening to the Gailey presser, it sounded like he was mistakenly referring to last year as Bell's rookie year.
-
100 better sub places? youre wrong and thats a stupid comment. There are better sub places for sure. But the fact of the matter is that you can get a damn good sub at a friggin grocery store which happens to be a well respected place for their quality etc. People who arent near one drive 45 mins to shop there (see DC area folks).
You dont like wegmans thats cool but you cant name 25 better sub shops i bet
Hi Danny. I must have more discerning taste. I wouldn't drive 45 mins for a sub from there. And I do like Wegmans, just saying in my opinion their tailgate type food is just average at best when compared to other options.
As for 25 better sub shops, any mom 'n pop shop in local neighborhoods are better, which would easily add up. JMO.
-
To each their own. I've been to Wegman's plenty, and if that's gourmet then standards are pretty low. I mean it's OK, comletely average, but nothing to brag about. I'm not believing my ears when people rave about, for example, their subs?! Wow, Buffalo has a TON of great sub places, but Wegman's isn't in the top 100 IMHO. And it's not just the subs I'm talking about either - wings, pizza, etc. You can do better.
-
PTR - seriously store bought prepared food tastes better than food made at a tailgate? I guess you've never been to a good tailgate then.....
I tend to agree. Must be attending the wrong tailgate if store bought prepared food blows your tailgate away.
That's how I like 'em.Buffalo blasphemy.

WOW! And people complain about DirecTV price hikes.
Will Maybin turn out to be the Bill biggest 1st. Rd. Bust?

What's worse - picking a "project" with the #11 overall pick in the draft, or said project flaming out in the NFL?
